JERUSALEM: Israel released a Turkish woman who had been arrested while she was visiting a tourist visa and accused of 39, helping Palestinian militant group Hamas, in a case that angered Ankara, Israel and his lawyer said Monday. Turkey has threatened retaliation after the detention of Ebru Ozkan last month. The former allies have long disagreed over Israeli policy towards the Palestinians and the status of Jerusalem. Ozkan's attorney, Omar Khamaisi, said she had gone to Istanbul on Sunday, a week after an Israeli military court charged her. An appeal court ordered him to release his pbadport and return his pbadport, he told Reuters, adding: "The indictment is still in effect, but I think this will also be canceled. "The Turkish news agency Anadlou quoted Ozkan as he landed, thanking President Tayyip Erdogan for being" kind enough to be very interested in my case ". Commenting on the decision to release Ozkan, an Israeli official, expressing himself under the guise of anonymity, said: "There are a number of factors behind this decision, including the time that it takes to make the decision. she has already been in custody and the fact that the charges have been laid "
